Welcome to “Thank U Snowboarding,” the podcast that dives deep into the rich history and vibrant culture of UK snowboarding. From the early pioneers handcrafting boards in the Scottish Highlands to today’s Olympic medalists and world champions, we’re uncovering the incredible stories behind an island nation that, despite its lack of towering peaks, has made a monumental impact on the snowboarding world.
Join us as we chat with the trailblazers, innovators, and everyday riders who have shaped, and are shaping, this unique scene, exploring what makes snowboarding not just a sport, but a way of life. Whether you’re a seasoned shredder or new to the slopes, our mission is to celebrate the passion that fuels our community and inspire the next generation to hit the mountains. So strap in, and let’s carve our way through the history and culture of UK snowboarding together!

Oh my days, this was a funny conversation. This chairlift was one after the episode with Rich Dunning where we talked about Manuca Honey, and swerves off on a tangent. This kinda set the tone for a fun day of shredding as a big posse in Tignes, with loads of laughs on the chairlift rides. A smattering of fresh snow on the ground, and, I assume, a couple of pints of Guiness afterwards, the best of times!

Thank U Snowboarding - Chairlift Chats 11 - Dan Crichton
Not many people live and breathe snowboarding quite like Dan Crichton, who along with Lizzie Holloway, have been making sure the UK gets Burton Snowboards, with the best service, demos, team riders and the love that Jake himself brought to the sport. We were lucky to have Dan with us for a few days on the Thank U Snowboarding Community Building Camp, and he worked hard making sure our guests had the right board for them, Step On boots and bindings to try, and providing enough stoke to lift an X-Wing out of a swamp. So, it was fun to have a little chat about business, whilst riding a chairlift during the camp, and to share it with you...

Thank U Snowboarding - Chairlft Chat 10 - Caz Barrie Smith
Caz spent a fair bit of time on the camp being a little risqué, so I thought she'd make for a funny chairlift chat. What I didn't realise was how deep her roots in snowboarding go and how committed to the shred and how technical she is about it. So, I found that I just listened to her more than anything. Caz is all I love about snowboarders, people who deeply love the mountains, who may not live there, but care so much about kit and enjoying their time when they are there. Can't wait to shred with you some more in 27 x
